Oh no! You really think I overpaid? I mean, someone paid 3700 for it three weeks ago, and sold it to me for 2400. And I overpaid? The engine has 85000 miles on it and runs awesome.

I had a jeep for 4 years and I probably used I 4wd like a dozen times. As for the the fact that you use your 4wd in the rain completely baffles me. How long you been on the roads for?

For a jeep in great shape, with under 100000 miles, and dressed up cosmetically, I don't think 5000 is a completely unrealistic asking price. If no one thinks it's worth 4500 at least, I'll gladly keep her myself. I mean, that inline six will go forever and considering I paid 2400 dollars for that potential, I think I'm in really good shape.

What do you other cherokee'rs think? Is it me, or is it bimmer?

 

Obviously a jeeper won't go near it, but if know plenty of chicks driving around in jeeps. I doubt it's all about the 4wd for them. It's a good looking car, it was a sad day they discontinued making them. My main point still remains that someone bought it two weeks ago for 3690 when it sat on the lot for literally 3 days. And it had a ton of **** missing. All replaced for 70 dollars.

I'm not scared, not one bit. If no one bites, I'll sit on her. I'm not in any hurry. I'm only gonna be in her around 3000 when all is said and done.

I'll be sure to let you guys know what she goes for when that time comes.

 

Jeepspeed!! Those 4x4s are heavier and slower. More fuel consumption. More things to break lol

 

OP...you're good to go. Don't pay attention to Bimmer's nonsense. You're doing just fine.

 

My 2001 2wd. 4.5 zone/RE lift on 32s.

 

Here she is, first day home.

 

Haha right?! Thats very true!

 

Hey, at least I understand why it says 'don't feed the bimmer' in you're quotes haha. Thanks again

 

Me like. She looks good. How's she like the 32's? Im probably gonna stick with the stock rim but the tires right now are 175 75r15's. I'm gonna go for the 235 75r15's. Should give her a bit more attitude. If I end up keeping her, then I'll explore the more serious upgrades.

But yours looks awesome man enjoy!

 

Guess who drove for 3 hours through the back roads of Atlanta during the snow and ice storm in a 2wd cherokee. Glad I got off at an exit when everyone stopped. It sounds like you should be driving a scooter or a bicycle.

 

I drove my high hp 2wd diesel truck in the snow. Never had an issue. I actually pulled people out of ditches. All in 2wd.

 

I call bull****. It's impossible to drive a 2wd vehicle in the rain, LET ALONE SNOW.

 

Lolz I can also divide by 0. I haz tallents

 

Musta been a dream.
